With the holidays coming, here's a candy that has been a favorite for a long time. I like mine with melted hershey bars on top, two or three.
Make some for yourself and a bigger batch to share with those that stop by. It's wonderful.

BUTTER BRICKLE

Ingredients :
2 sticks butter
1 1/3 c. sugar
1 tbsp. light corn syrup
3 tbsp. water
1 c. chocolate chips
1 c. almond bits

Preparation :
Cook over stove in a heavy saucepan. Use candy thermometer, heat
to 300 to 325 degrees. Add almonds. Save a little for the top.
Spread in greased cookie sheet. Melt chocolate chips over top and
sprinkle with almond bits. Store in refrigerator.
